I wanted to get rid of the border and have my border style. The inverse applies if I start with an arrow key and then use the corresponding number. If you don’t mind the standard Windows border, you can choose an option that best fits your taste and usage of your keyboard. If I hit the 8 Key on the number pad several times and then use the dedicated Up Arrow Key(to the left of the Num-Pad) it will, for about three clicks, act as though Im hitting the 8 Key. If you select the None option from your form properties for the FormBorderStyle, you will not be able to move your keyboard around the screen and change its position. Although any single character can be used as a key name, its meaning (scan code or virtual keycode) depends on the current keyboard layout. I also added the code to change the background color of the keys as you hover the mouse over them. Note: The names of the letter and number keys are the same as that single letter or digit. I tried editing the source klc file, but I did not find documentation about the language. I change the visibility of the labels for CAPS and NUM depends on the On or Off status of the corresponding keys. I tried to use Microsoft Layout Creator, though I do not know how to show the numeric keypad in this program. Some more cosmetic details include adding a row with CAPS, Insert, and NUM LOCK key status.

Imagine Custom keys as a shortcut to send two or more characters in one keystroke. Now that I have complete control of my onscreen keyboard, I want to add custom keys. Basically, Shift+Numlock can turn on or off mouse keypad. For example, when NumLock is off, the 8 key acts as an up-arrow. Before you start wiring up your board here is the pin diagram of the CD4021 from the Texas Instruments Datasheet PINS 1,4-7, 13-15 P1, P8 (Pins 0-7) Parallel Inputs PINS 2, 12, 3 Q6, Q7, Q8 Serial Output Pins from different steps in the sequence. With this option unselected, use Shift with keys on the numerical pad to obtain the reverse of the current behaviour for that key. This should allow keymappings to work on the keypad exactly like they do across the top of the keyboard. This line reassigns 'Numpad Insert' key to be 'Shift plus Numpad0'. Capslock.BackColor = ( ' #0076D7') Ĭapslock.BackColor = ( ' #333333') Custom Keys There is more information about shifting in the ShiftOut tutorial. With Numlock enabled and while holding the Shift key and then pressing the number pad '0' key you will get 'insert' instead of '0'.
